Summertime has arrived with summer trips being planned and if you are searching for a family hauler that is a great fit for people and pets, then you need to put the new redesigned Toyota Highlander on the top of your list.

This very popular mid-sized SUV covers all the bases for being dependable, stylish, safe, spacious, fun to drive and affordable. A Highlander in your favorite color and styling is waiting for your up close and personal inspection with the friendly folks at Lone Star Toyota of Lewisville located at 1547 S Stemmons Freeway in Lewisville, Texas or by calling the dealership at 469.671.5500 and so ready to take your expectations for a drive. Easy as that.

This new Toyota Highlander has been getting very positive reviews from many car critics/writers. For example, the trustworthy organization Consumer Reports gave the Highlander one of their coveted “Check Marks” for a Recommended Vehicle with very high grades in Reliability and Owner Satisfaction. CR commented: “The Highlander ranks among the best mid-sized three-row SUV's with a desirable balance of an absorbent ride, responsive handling and generous interior space.”

As said, this Highlander is an excellent choice for families and also able to haul cargo from the big box stores. In your enjoyable test drive in this 7 or 8 seater, you experience not only a well-appointed cabin, but also a quiet, controlled and comfortable ride. This year, Toyota has expanded its Highlander family with the athletic SE model and two new hybrids. The sharp looking SE edition employs a sport-tuned suspension, 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels, dark grille and an upscale sporty interior.

This new Highlander conveys a more elegant presence in all its trims. Even the colors looks as luxurious as they sound, such as Celestial Silver Metallic, Toasted Walnut Pearl and especially the Salsa Red Pearl. This theme continues when you and yours slide into those comfy seats and admire all the amenities and abundance of room for knees and heads. A one step second-row sliding seat system makes entering and leaving the spacious third seat much easier. Even those passengers get a standard reclining seat.

There are also many useful setups, such as 5 USB ports and the highly rated Entune infotainment system from Toyota for your entertainment and communication needs. A comprehensive suite of standard safety features are included, which has the very popular emergency braking feature. It just gets better as what is powering you efficiently down the road with the new and powerful 3.5-liter V6 that punches out nearly 300 lively ponies with the smooth shifting 8-speed automatic. Other choices are the standard energetic 2.7-liter four that delivers 185 perky horses or one of the new hybrids. No better time than now to check out a new Toyota Highlander.

The bet is on that you will leave with a smile, not only because you brought back that “fun factor” in your drive times, but for the great deal you received.
